Fiction
Every gift has a price . . . Every piece of lace has a secret . . . My name is Towner Whitney. No, that's not exactly true. My
real first name is Sophya. Never believe me. I lie all the
time. . . . Towner Whitney, the self-confessed unreliable narrator of
The Lace Reader, hails from a family of Salem women who can
read the future in the patterns in lace, and who have
guarded a history of secrets going back generations, but
the disappearance of two women brings Towner home to Salem
and the truth about the death of her twin sister to light. The Lace Reader is a mesmerizing tale that spirals into a
world of secrets, confused identities, lies, and half-
truths in which the reader quickly finds it's nearly
impossible to separate fact from fiction, but as Towner
Whitney points out early on in the novel, "There are no
accidents."
